Sir Thomas Bond, 1st Baronet

Sir Thomas Bond, 1st Baronet (c. 1620–1685) was an English landowner and Comptroller of the household of Queen Henrietta Maria.

On 9 October 1658, before the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660, Bond was created by King Charles II a Baronet in the Baronetage of England.

He bought a large estate from his brother-in-law Sir Thomas Crymes (or Grimes), Baronet, and Westminster's Bond Street is named after one of his developments.

[2] The arms of the Bond family (argent, on a chevron sable three bezants) and their crest (a winged demi-horse ensigned with six stars), with the motto Orbis non sufficit ("The world is not enough"),[3] were emblazoned in a window of the church of St Giles, Camberwell, destroyed by a fire in the 19th century.

[5] Bond is mentioned in the diary of Samuel Pepys, in the entry for 26 December, Boxing Day, 1660, some months after the Restoration.
